Do we really need these many posting bots?

Every day I am noticing more and posts by bots.

At first it didn't bother me as I thought bot posting may incentivate people to comment but since this rarely happens and now I think they are just polluting the communities.

I know I can filter them but I wonder what is the general sentiment about this.

Not a huge fan of the reddit repost bots when we can steal content the old fashioned way by right-clicking!

Right, every Reddit repost boy gets a downvote from me.

I don't know if it makes a difference, but i don't want to read Reddit through lemmy via a bot.
